The first members’ article of the week arrives this evening as we delve into the data from Gameweek 6. We check in on Chelsea and West Brom’s new attackers, assess Everton and Southampton’s lone strikers, and cast an eye over Liverpool’s main performers in light of Brendan Rodgers’ move to a 3-4-1-2 formation at home to Norwich.

where can I find the news on Silva? or is it still uncertain
-
Also searching, just twitter rumour it seems
-
If its not in the scout tweets its probably uncertain
-
-
smartass...what about his injury?
-
If there were news on the injury it would be on that ticker.
-
sorry not his wife

the internet is a wonderful thing if people search it

Demi posted it. Local journal tweeted that Pelle said its post match conference. Reliable source by all accounts.

As Munich had such a good win, and it is Oktoberfest, it's time for this to come back:

Fplstatistics says KDB won't rise as it stands, FFFix says he will, which is more trustworthy?
-
fpls
-
Same as last night. I'd do with fplstats
-
*I'd go
-
-
FFFix has been disappointing tbh
-
-
so if Silva is actually fit, I may just play this and hold onto my remaining FT. have 0.8m itb, did Gomis > Martial on Sunday when he was 8m:
..................Butland
....Darmian - Williams - Kolarov
Silva - Mahrez - Sanchez - Payet
......Aguero - Martial - Wilson
McCarthy; Sinclair, Richards, Gomez-
No need for any more more moves.
-
-
if not fit...silva to kdb or haz?
-
I'm on same dilemma.Thinking KDB but price change tonight or tomorrow
-
Haz. I fancy him to have a nice run with Chelsea's fixtures turning more favourable.
-
-
one of the goals of the season IMO, just gorgeous to watch. proper team football:
https://www.facebook.com/uniladfootball/videos/1087225177956995/
scored by Diego Simeone's son, Giovanni-
That defence tho...
-
Alright Hansen
-
Don't get me wrong it's a great goal
-
-
-
Yeah, beautiful goal.
-
Wow, that's not bad....
-
Incredible movement off the ball.
10 passes, 12 touches -
Benteke's goal has been the best so far probably.
-
Mason in the bpl

It's good, but it's not quite http://imgur.com/4qFaBb5

that one was also pure sex

Immediately thought of FPL when I read these cognitive biases. http://lifehacker.com/this-graphic-explains-20-cognitive-biases-that-affect-y-1730901381?inset_alt=off&utm_expid=66866090-55.VeucWPObSOiOW4XRx2RJDA.1&utm_referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fark.com%2Fgoto%2F8864491%2Flifehacker.com%2Fthis-graphic-explains-20-cognitive-biases-that-affect-y-1730901381
Even the best of us are subject to a few of these-
Haven't given it a read but the gambler's fallacy is bread and butter for many around here

Can never help but giggle at a he's "due" argument

Get yourself this.

Great book the infographic likely used as inspiration.-
I've read that, great book.
-
system 1 and 2
-
Aye and how they play their part in each of these biases
-
-
-
I feel like lawyers abuse Anchoring bias a lot.
-
But lawyers aren't trying to make a complete and accurate argument, they're just trying to get people to accept the argument that best serves their client. Biases probably help as most struggle to see through them
-
true, but what I meant is that I feel like they abuse the notion of briefly mentioning items that the judge then instructs them to disregard, which of course is difficult/impossible to do.
-
Oh most definitely, just a bit of gamesmanship innit
-
-

-

Repost:
What to do with this lot guys? 2FTs, 0.2 itb
Butland Schmeicel
Cedric Kolarov Francis Gomez Saylor
Hazard Sanchez Yaya Mahrez Westwood
Ageuro Wilson Sakho-
There's big question marks over Gomez holding down a place now. I'd transfer for Evans.
-
0.1 short of making this move, am thinking Gomez > Moreno
or Cedric + Schmeicel > Moreno/Prodl + Begovic-
Ah sorry! I have the problem of needing to transfer Gomez too, just can't decide if Moreno will hold his place...
-
-
-
-
I have Gomis (since gw5) and Bolasie (since gw6) in my team.
Both are very close to drop in price, so should I get rid?
1 ft-
Hold onto Gomis, maybe ditch Bolasie 🙂
-
Already got ayew and williams btw. Taking bolasie out after one game feels like such a waste
-
You could probably afford to ditch Gomis then. Bolasie is definitely a differential, up to you what you do with him!
-
thanks:)
-
-
-
-
boashie is that rare creature that you can see turns games in real life but does not get the fpl rewards for this
-
-
fyi @FFS Mods, the notification system is buggy/deactivated/delayed
-
email jonty or Mark for this sort of stuff.
-
-
So if Benteke continues to be a big doubt going into Sat...
Benteke -> Martial
?
Means keeping Coutinho this week, but leaving 2 free to do:
Coutinho -> Pedro
Gomez -> Evans
Next week
Thoughts?-
I'd probably sooner consider Benteke -> Pelle. United have some tough fixtures after this GW.
-
Yeah, fixtures not great but not sure I'm that worried about that
His starting spot worries me more...but surely he continues to get game time given his start. Bench tomorrow vs Town would be a + too I reckon
Not convinced on Pelle still
-
-
Falcao?
-
-
Am I the only one with no ManUtd or Chelsea attacker this gw against the bottom 2 sides?
Better hide behind the couch-
You're not alone..
McCarthy
Darmian Kolarov Evans
Sanchez Sterling Coutinho Mahrez Payet
Kun Wilson
Bench: Ruddy, Gomis, Gomez, Richards-
Very similar team to mine
have schmeichel sagna silva ayew over ruddy kolarov sterling and coutinho
-
-
Me too
-
Same here although I plan to rectify it before the weekend.
-
No Attacker, but I got Azpi and Bego
-
Could be gold against a toothless newcastle.
-
-
-
Afraid not to own Pedro next week... New are in shamble (insert appropriate)
-
Pedro or hazard though?
-
What does "the costa one" even mean?
-
What about Remy?
-
/falcao
-
-
why live your life in fear?
-
-
Yaya to Kdb for a hit?
-
Not for a hit
-
Def not for a hit.
-
-
How will mahrez do against the arse
-
... How are we supposed to know?
-
Ayew 4 real dawg?
-
-
I'll just go consult my magic 8 ball
-
Concentrate and ask again... hope that answers your question
-
-
He'll blank, trust me 😉
-
Caress the ring hole.

steady
surely the wrong website?

this could have been a huuuge mistake

More WC questions if you don't mind..... Thanks for the last set of replies
(a) City fixtures are so 'nice' could Aguero be rested for CL games..... they play Newc (h) 3 days after playing away in Germany and then he plays International for Argentina 3 days before the Bour (h) game... and the Norw (h) game is 3 days before playing away to Seville.....
(b) will Arsenal score enough of their chances to justify paying 11m for Sanchez-
I could see him subbed off after 45 or 60 if City are winning, but doubt he'll be rested. I could see him be rested with an "injury" instead of playing for Argentina, however
-
And Sanchez has this week to prove himself vs. a porous Leicester defense. Otherwise I will ship him out
-
-
-
Oh Robert.. https://i.imgur.com/djIInsk.jpg
-
Pep looks like a little boy on Christmas day
-
Hahah
-
-
-
(All my team) --> lewandowski for a hit is it worth it?
-
I mean great fixtures but average form....
-
I'd stick with bendtner
-
-
Anyone considering Remy for next 3 games ? (new SOT AVL)
Has 7 goals in 853 mins (roughly 9 games) last seaosn-
Not with falcao hovering
-
Never again.
-
Nope. Considering Haz , however
-
One of the Games Costa misses in the Cup game tomorrow, so he'll be back for villa so not worth it
-
-
Ayew to Payet for a hit?
-
Not for a hit
-
-
A lot of Mourinho gravs lurking around...
-
yah-earlier than most i'd suggest
-
Changed to mine at the start of the season when some filth stole mine
-
-
rushed into getting Martial last a couple of nights ago and now feeling like a filthy casual sheep and wish i'd given more thought to eden hazard's return to form and maybe fitting in zouma. going without payet worrying too. all in all, kinda regretting my decision
anyone feel the same?-
I held back and feeling good ... But will be hiding behind a chair for Sunderland game. After that I see lots of blanks
-
I'm getting payet send hazard this week....not to rub it in.
Martial should be good for you, this week at least. -
They were calling casuals the people that were buying Mahrez too, so...
-
It was like the boxing day sales on here Sunday night.
-
Well if it makes you feel any better I'm still terrified of not having him and considering getting him for a hit. At least you got the price rises.
-
I did the same and it kinda forced me to use my WC 2 weeks earlier than expected. (The Gomez and Darmian situation also didn't help)...... Hazard could put a big run together
-
Shame on you! tbf it wasnt just a casual bandwagon but the sunday night was the fastest bandwagon I've seen on this site this season
-
/ever
-
Fastest I've seen since Dzeko in 2011/12 after he got 4 against Spurs.
-
I got on that one and it didn't go all that well, could be a lesson there!
-
Indeed

Goodnight, nufgr/might just watch this 10 more times tho...

Optimusclyne, I replied to your post on the article I wrote (albeit the reply didn't show up as a reply but a fresh comment).
-
Cheers Diva! I do agree that people are getting carried away especially when they start taking hits to get Martial. What I was getting at is that provided you aren't getting him in for his current conversion rate or because you're a Utd stan then there are very good reasons to go with him. at 8m in a position that rooney was expected to fill at the beginning of the season, at the spearhead of a team like Utd, price rises, etc...(although none of these factors alone are sufficient) I'll admit it is a slightly punt pick (disclaimer: I brought him in on a FT) but you've got to have fun.
-
Thanks Optimusclyne. I wrote that on Sunday night when FPL was going into meltdown. He could be a great pick, but people were acting like it was the second coming of Christiano Ronaldo or something that night and I wanted to say "Woah, slow down a bit and think about this."
-
Haha fair enough, when the herd is stampeding just get out of the way
-
Aye, this is the first time the current has been too strong for me but its definitely a lesson learned.

Which combo guys?
A) Rondon and Payet
or
B)Depay and Sakho
Wba and Whm both have the fixtures, but can I go without any utd att v Sun?-
A of the two options but I'm not sure about Rondon, WBA don't seem to score enough.
-
Payet and Ighalo/Diouf?
-
Yeah I like Ighalo for the price. But maybe Rondon is worth a punt considering the fixtures if you like the look of him (I just read the article above ^^).
-
Yeh maybe go try it. Like I say whm and Wba got the fixtures.
-
-
-
-
A with Berahino instead
-
He is one I looked at but playing left.
-
-
-
Currently on:
Kolarov, Evans, Cedric
Sanchez, Mane, Payet, Mahrez
Aguero, Gomis, Wilson
With Ayew first sub.
Bench Ayew or Wilson or play AOA?-
Ayew 1st sub
-
Cheers
-
-
-
Who did well tonight? I noticed De Bruyne scored. Worth bringing him for free for Yaya Toure or am I better off getting someone else like Hazard?
-
Get hazard if you have toure.
-
I would keep Toure, I'm actually considering buying him at the moment.
-
-
If Silvas not classed fit...
Swap him to Pedro for the New game for a hit? My defence is struggelling too with kompany and gomez-
Kompany supposed to be fit for sat.....and silva.
-
Who is your bench mid/forward?
-
-
Who to bench out of this lot:
Sterling Mane Ayew Mahrez Ozil
Aguero Ighalo Sakho-
Ayew
-
Ayew......would lose ozil for hazard/pedro soon
-
I've been thinking of Ozil to Pedro for a few weeks now but can't seem to bring myself to get rid of my only Arsenal cover
-
Arsenal cover is anything but essential.
-
-
-
ayew
-something not right at swansea just now
-rest have cracking fixtures/form -
Thanks guys, that was pretty conclusive. Hazard to Ayew was my first transfer of the season and has worked out reasonably well.
-
-
Tempted to get KdB for Yaya with extra Gomis cash.. pretty tempting
Yaya and Azpi
or
KdB and Bellerin/or 5.5 max defender-
Yaya -> KDB is not worth a transfer right now imo, he looked very threatening against West Ham.
-
KdB looked even more threatening though! Can see plenty of baps for KdB since he can actually shoot along with pass and pace
Navas an Sterling can't shoot but get themselves in great positions, KdB can shoot and decent stats when he does play. Only concern is he's a great no.10 but Silva will likely be back so who knows
